Sanatana Dharma (Devanagari: meaning "eternal dharma" or "eternal order") has been proposed as an alternative, indigenous name. Today it is erroneously associated only with Hinduism. The term was used during the Hindu revivalism movement in order to avoid having to use the term "Hindu" which is of non-native (Persian) origin.
In current-day usage, the term Sanatana Dharma is used to emphasize an "orthodox" or sanatani ("eternalist") outlook in contrast to the socio-political Hinduism embraced by movements such as the Arya Samaj.
The phrase dharma sanatana does occur in classical Sanskrit literature, e.g. in the Manusmrti and in the Bhagavata Purana,in a sense akin to "cosmic order".
